I've been used to my Ety HF2s for years, but now am looking for one or two sets of IEMs. Looking for HiFi or neutral signature. Hoping for more bass than Etys, but not overpowering. So, I don't mind the highs rolling off so long as the bass doesnt get in the way (which it does in Shure SE215s, to my ear).
-One for everyday use, under $200, for subway, phone calls, sleeping, street walking, etc. Really want decent isolation. Maybe not as good as the Etys, but close.
-One for sleeping, home use, and trips, with awesome sound and isolation. $600 is max here.
Would love to swap replacement cables so I could use with phone for phone calls.
What do I listen to? A lot of post-rock (Explosions In the Sky), classic rock, indie/alt-rock, some classical, some jazz. Once in a while hip-hop.
I tend to have slightly smaller ear canals (I find the JVD HXFD80s super uncomfortable, but the Shure's pretty comfortable, save for the memory wire).
Cheers,
DC
